Error Correction in Link Layer

Posted 17 August 2012 - 12:16 AM

Hello,

I am currently reading the Kurose book about networks and I am a little bit confused about the link layer error detection and correction. As far as I know the techniques for error detection in the link layer is Parity check, CRC, Checksum (supplied by Transport layer)

I would like to double check if the following assumption is correct:

Error correction in link layer is only provided through the 2 Dimensional parity check scheme.
